In this powerful reflection, Larry shares a moment that changed his life forever. During a five-day workshop, he found himself frustrated with a fellow participant who continually broke the rules by selling items out of his pocket. The frustration lingered throughout the week—until an exercise challenged Larry to see beyond appearances.
In the exercise, Larry was asked to pair with the first person he encountered, and, as if guided by something greater, it was this same man. As they stared into each other’s eyes, something profound happened. Larry saw not just the surface, but the deep pain behind the man’s actions. In that moment, his heart opened wide, shifting from frustration to pure compassion. Both men were moved to tears, recognizing the humanity and Love in each other.
This experience left a lasting impact on Larry and is now one of the foundational stories behind Love in Every Face. It shows how Love can heal division and how we can truly see the Love within others when we look deeper.
